حلوه فكرة البوست. انا من عشاق الافلام الوثائقيه وبعض الافلام الاوروبيه.
راح احاول اشوف هاي الافلام اذا كانت على نيت فليكس
كلامك صحيح بالنسبه للافلام الامريكيه المنسوخه من اوروبيه. معظم الاحيان بتفشل بسبب المبالغه بالعنف والدراما

Welcome back, Rand!
I agree, twitter lost its charm.
Blindly defending Jordan is like when parents never correct their children's behaviors. Imagine how these children will become in 20 or 30 years.

Long time ago in Irbid if you want to buy a good quality shoe you go to baleh, the irony. Anyway, I was shopping for a shoe in baleh and found one that I liked, I took it to the cashier handed him a 20JD bill (I forgot the price of the shoe) but he told me he doesn't have a change and I should break it down by asking around. After begging for a change from his neighbor shops I came back to him excited to buy my new shoe to find out that he sold it to someone else.
After reading your list it seems horrible shopping experience in Jordan is destined never to change. Maybe I should write about my shopping experience in the US just to tease you :)

Do you have a foreign agenda or something? Talking about reform might be dangerous not because of government, mind you, but because of people.
Anyway, I am writing a post about customer service in America but didn't publish it yet. You will be shocked about how important customer service is important here. The general idea and the logic suggest that bad customer service means a failed business. But in Jordan it seems this theory is working in the opposite direction. I have read many complaints about how bad the Jordanian cell phone service industry is but all what I hear is that their businesses are growing up. How come?

Naser,
I have never been to any of these social media events. I don't know a single person who attend these events. Everything I know is from what I read on blogs. I may agree with you that I have read a lot about these too many meetings. But I can't say whether such thing is good or bad because I have never been to one. I believe that one can not do his best if he doesn't accept criticism and learn from it if it is valid. You have all the right to criticize for the sake of improving what we have. And I hope the organizers of this event either learn from their mistakes, if they have any, or explain their policies clearly.
I think social media events are still new to Jordan and so they are prone to mistakes.
Again, I am not defending anyone or even know exactly what is going on there on these meetings. What I am trying to say is that a meeting for Jordanian bloggers is an excellent idea. We finally, got people to hear via bloggers what local news never said before. Bloggers can really change things and such meetings are supposed to improve the quality of blogging, one would hope. And of course having fun mean while is no harm. Without blogging I would have never hear the other voice of this event :)

If only people you mentioned in your rant read blogs :)
Luckily, I didn't experience few of the things you mentioned especially number 10. But I would like to vent here since it seems it is okay to do so at the "The Blog of the Ugly Duckling" :) I hate the questions/surveys Facebook came up recently and people are using with no limit. The questions serve no purpose other than annoying people and the results of the vote mean nothing. So why ask questions (this is an informative statement not a question).
I feel better now. I should come here more often and vent some social media etiquette frustration :) I hope I don't end up being in your next list about worst blog commentators though :)

This is actually very smart way to write about Jordan for the blog for Jordan day. I like the idea of writing about the Jordanian bloggers. Nice post!
I am very sad that I can't participate in B4JO due to being SUPER busy.
Thanks for the kind words about my blog :)

Hear that people who I follow on twitter and don't follow me back, I am "The always interesting Jaraad."
Thank you Rand, you made my day :)
I am glad you mentioned that you are happy most of the time blogging with your real name. I decided to do that, in a moment of boredom, two days ago after more than four years of blogging. Lets see how this thing goes :)
